About the Book: Together with his trusted friend and assistant Dr. Watson, Sherlock Holmes investigates a puzzling murder case. While the first half of the novel is set in London, the story then flashes back to the Salt Lake Valley (in modern Utah) years earlier. Both plot lines eventually meet and culminate in a fascinating conclusion that includes everything readers love about Sherlock Holmes stories. From today's perspective, A Study in Scarlet's non-linear structure feels surprisingly modern.
